Average Entry Price Calculator
Add 2–8 fills to get weighted average entry, total cost, and quantity.

From estimate to a live bot scenario
Carry the same logic into Veles: set comparable parameters, preview the order grid, then backtest before you launch.
- Match direction, leverage, grid, Martingale, and TP/SL
- Inspect orders, capital allocation, and average entry
- Stress-test fees, drawdown, and MAE in a backtest
Assumptions & conventions
- Weighted by base quantity: avg = Σ(price × qty) / Σ(qty).
- Optional per-fill fee rate adds to quote cost before averaging.
- Enter percents as numbers: 1 for 1%.
Frequently asked questions
How do you calculate average entry price in crypto?
Average entry is the quantity-weighted cost of all fills: total cost ÷ total base quantity. With fees, each fill cost = price × qty × (1 + feeRate), so the average includes fee drag.
This matters after scaling in, hedging partials, or rebuilding a position across several orders.
How many fills can I add?
You can model up to eight fills. Use Add fill / Remove fill to grow or shrink the ladder of executions.
Every leg needs a finite positive price and quantity; invalid legs surface field errors instead of being silently skipped.
Should fee rate be per fill or round trip?
Enter the per-fill fee rate you expect on each execution (for example 0.1 for 0.1%). The tool applies that rate to every leg independently.
If your venue bills differently on entry vs exit, use the rate that matches the fills you are averaging.
Average entry vs DCA bot average — what is the difference?
This calculator works from explicit fill prices and sizes you already have or plan. The DCA/Martingale calculator instead generates a geometric safety-order ladder from bot parameters and then derives average entry.
Use average entry for bookkeeping of known fills; use DCA when designing the ladder itself.
Does average entry include unrealized PnL?
No. It is a cost-basis metric. Unrealized PnL needs a mark or exit price against that average — pair this tool with the long/short PnL or futures calculator for outcome estimates.
